I understand that every patient has a different experience.  My age has probably been a very positive factor in my quick recovery.  I'm 49.  Today marks the 17th day since my surgery.  I feel good.  I'm at about 85% of my energy level.  This is my third day back to work.  Only minor incontinence.  I wear a small pad and it is improving daily.

 

I am able to get erections.  They are at about 75% of pre-surgery levels.  Overall, I am very pleased with the surgery and the results.  The main challenge with the whole experience was the catheter.
 

I am very pleased with the excellent job that Dr. Slawin and Mr. Dodge did on my procedure.
